Male students showed a double standard toward female versus male homosexuality

Evidence

The first thing that struck me about the results, continuing the theme above, was how positively nearly all the acts were evaluated. Means over 7.0 on a 1-9 scale mean that people often answered with a +3 or +4 (which translate into an 8 or a 9)—a strong endorsement. All the acts got positive ratings (greater than 5:0) overall. … The second thing that struck me was how little difference showed up between the women and the men. (I am probably betraying the bias of my era here.) Still, differences appeared. Women did not like giving oral stimulation to orgasm (5.5) nearly as much as men liked doing it (7.2), or especially as much as men liked receiving it (8.1). Women did not like intercourse with the man behind them (6.4) as much as the men did (7.7). But you can see that all the other differences in the means came in less than 1.0. — Bob Altemeyer, The Authoritarian Specter, 2355 (#complicates, via linked claim)
